Smart Projectors: The Perfect Family Entertainment Solution

After long days at work or school, sitting in the living room and enjoying entertaining movies, TV shows, or sports is a good way to relax. Thanks to smart projectors, family entertainment can be perfect in the living room and outdoors, unlike TVs, which are only ideal for indoor use.

Apart from the advantage of portability, smart projectors also have the edge over TVs in other areas. They go easier on the eye due to low blue light emissions and can produce large screens, large enough to have every member of the family sitting a comfortable distance away. They also give better value for money and can last many years when properly maintained.

In this article, we will explain the benefits of having smart projectors and why they are great investments. We will also recommend XGIMI smart projectors that give good value for money and are excellent for family entertainment indoors and outdoors.

Why You Should Consider Investing in a Smart Projector

For Children

For kids whose eyes are still under-developed, too much exposure to blue light may lead to eye strain, myopia, headache and other symptoms. 

One of the most significant benefit of smart projectors is their ability to emit low blue light. They use a diffused lighting technology, casting light onto the screen or wall first. Before the light reaches your eyes, most of the blue light is lost. When you watch your favorite content on projector screens, you have a lesser risk of suffering eye fatigue.

With a smart projector, exposure to harmful blue light is significantly reduced compared to LED screens of TVs, smartphones, tablets, or laptops, which cast their light directly into your eyes.

Apart from low blue light, the large screen provided by a smart projector can also be very useful for kids. 

Some smart projector models can deliver screen sizes between 60 – 200 inches. Kids won't need to get too close to the screen to see clearly, thus reducing the risk of eye strain from focusing on a small screen for long periods of time.

For Elderly

One distinct feature of smart projectors is the large screen they can produce. Some models' 60 – 200 inches screens give you something akin to a cinema experience in your home or outdoors.

Some elderly people may have presbyopia, and experience dizziness and headaches when they see a screen at close range. This is where a large 100 inches screen may help. No matter it's an indoor or outdoor party, family movie night, karaoke night (to display the songs' lyrics boldly), etc., seniors can enjoy a clear large screen while sitting comfortably on the couch.

For Parents

Imagine being able to enjoy quality family movie time in the backyard with sodas and snacks. That's what you get with a smart portable projector. It would also be a great addition to your family camping experience, when the whole family can enjoy an outdoor movie night in the woods under the stars.

When the kids go to bed, that's couples time. You can move the entertainment back to the bedroom and enjoy some romantic movies with your loved one.

A smart projector with a large screen is also more affordable than a TV with the same image size. They are also incredibly durable, lasting up to 10+ years with little to no maintenance, saving you a lot of money.

For Singles or Couples

You no longer have to restrict yourself to laptop or smartphone screens when watching your favorite content outdoors. Smart projectors are lighter (some weigh as little as 3.5 pounds) and more compact than the average smart TV.

You can move them easily in the home or pack them up in a backpack if you need to take them along while going on a trip. Some outdoor projectors come with built-in batteries, which means you can use them wherever you are as long as they are fully charged, unlike TVs which always require you to connect to power sources.

If you want true value for money, smart projectors should be your go-to choice. Some models come with high resolution (1080p/4K) and high brightness, with which you can enjoy the high-quality projection of your favorite content at any time of the day.

Some models go further with the large screens, giving you a cinematic feel as you watch your favorite movies or TV shows with the family, and built-in entertainment from Android TV™, giving you access to thousands of apps with a single click.
